Atlus bringing 3DS RPG beat-em-up Code of Princess to North America

Publisher Atlus is bringing what looks like another solid title to its ever growing lineup: the 3DS action RPG brawler Code of Princess. That's not a combination of genres you see every day, so let me explain...

Code of Princess combines the gameplay of fighters and classic beat-em-ups like Streets of Rage with character development and customization found in RPGs. Also, it features competitive and co-operative multiplayer, supported by both local and online play. So, at least a little like Dungeon Fighters Online.

Pre-ordering the game at select retailers will of course net you a bonus as with virtually all Atlus titles. In this case, it's the "Sound & Visual Book", which features art work from designer Kinu Nishimura and music from the soundtrack. Code of Princess releases in autumn.
